Italy hosts Belgium in the third round of the UEFA Nations League. The game takes place at the Olimpico Stadium in Rome.
Italy News
The fact that Italy beat France in Paris is enough to consider Azzurri one of the top contenders for winning the UNL title. If you forgot, they fell behind in the first minute yet clawed their way back right away before routing the Gauls 3-1.
Israel was the other victim of this team, 2-1, and that’s how Spalletti’s unit won six points to claim the top spot in its group. Surprisingly, the attack was the main reason for Italy’s triumphs, while the defese was the biggest problem. The 2020 EURO champs have allowed a goal in the previous five events.
Belgium News
After two rounds, Belgium has a win and a loss. The win was over Israel 3-1, while the loss occurred in Paris. France was better 2-0, and we have to say that the Devils couldn’t do anything in that event. The difference between them and France was just too big.
In other Belgium news, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku are out for this fixture. Both are injured, which will be a problem for Domenico Tedesco. Lukaku can be replaced, but De Bruyne, we believe, can’t.
Italy vs. Belgium Head to Head
The Italians have defeated Belgium in the recent two events. Both were in 2021. These teams met in the EURO knockout stage when Italy won 2-1. The other contest was in the UEFA Nations League, where Azzurri’s another 2-1 victory secured them third place.
Italy vs. Belgium Betting Tip
Italy has a very good offense, the same as Belgium, who has fantastic forwards with or without Lukaku. Also, the respective defenses aren’t playing at a high level, allowing goals frequently, which led us to pick both teams scoring as the best bet for this event.
Betting Tip: Both teams to score
